Card Edge Connectors - Housings

The 583280-1 card edge connector is a part of the card edge connectors used in the design of electrical connectors and is a component used to connect a printed circuit card to other equipment. Card edge connectors are an important feature of the electrical connections required in areas such as computer peripherals, telecommunications, audio and video components, and other types of electronic systems. The 583280-1 card edge connector offers a reliable electrical connection with versatile design features.

Application Field

The 583280-1 card edge connector is designed for use in a variety of applications, including cable-to-board and board-to-board connectors. They are used in electrical and electronic equipment such as computer motherboards, laptops, TV sets, and other electronics. Card edge connectors are also used in medical equipment, manufacturing systems, and aerospace applications. It is also available in varying pitch sizes, from 0.4 mm to 2.54 mm, and with different pin counts, from 3 to 48. This versatility enables them to be used in a wide range of applications.

Working Principle

The 583280-1 card edge connector consists of two parts: the receptacle and the contact. The receptacle is the component which is permanently attached to the substrate or device onto which the connector is to be mounted. The contact is the component which mates with the receptacle and locks into place. The contact locks into place using a wedge-spline design which is specific to the particular card edge connector.

The contact is typically made from a metal such as brass and is then plated with either copper or gold to ensure a good electrical connection. The maximum current capacity of the connector depends on the contact material and plating, and can vary from 0.5 to 10 Amps. The mating cycles the connector can withstand also depends on the contact material and plating, and can vary from 10,000 to 200,000 cycles.

The 583280-1 card edge connector offers a reliable electrical connection with versatile design features. Its unique design minimizes crosstalk, ensuring that signals are transmitted with minimal interference. Furthermore, the connector is designed for easy installation and is capable of withstanding harsh environmental conditions. Its ability to survive extreme temperatures and humidity make it a suitable choice for high-performance applications.
